Looks good. It seems to me that you are a gamer so why not go with Crossfire?

I dont think that mobo will let me install crossfire. does anyone know? is crossfire just 2 videocards?

Yeah I would get that. Also when I click on your mobo link it takes me to your case.

Ok its fixs thanks for reminding me. That case has so many fans and its expensive. any other upgrades like powersupply and the cd dvd burner?
 
First off get an X1900XT instead, the X1900XTXs are overpriced. There you already save over $200 - you can find a Sapphire X1900XT for 325.99 after MIR.

The only Intel chipset to support crossfire is the 975X, and motherboards based on that tend to overclock better as well. So with the money saved from the GPU cut get yourself a better motherboard like the ASUS P5W DH or Intel D975XBX.

You should still have some (alot of) cash left over from the GPU cut so get yourself a more overclock-able set of RAM like this G.Skill set.

As for the HDD I would go with a Seagate 7200.10 drive.

As for the PSU I would get something beefy like an OCZ GameXStream 600 or 700 watt.

Everything else looks good, consider getting a cheaper case though. And remember to get an optical drive.
